Beckett just threw that same pitch twice...haha 1st one was a ball apparently

 

[lupi]

damn, was hoping to see a couple more runs put in and tampa really start to seat it.

 

[Reckoner]

Should've taken a pitch or two there.

 

[Reckoner]

That's crap, call his ass out

 

[Capt Caveman]

Wow, Shields at 87 pitches after 4 innings. I thought after Upton's homer, Beckett was going to get racked. Knock on wood, Beckett's looked good. Hopefully, it'll shut-up all of the Francona bashers back in Boston for not starting Lester.

Tie game! Bartlett smacks one outta the park! Too bad Navaro's fat ass got thrown out by a mile at 2nd.

 

[Capt Caveman]

I was about to say something bad about Varitek.

 

[Baked]

WTF, Veritak jack! We're playing HR derby tonight.

 

[dbk]

ok, that is just embarrassing..Shields is done

 

[lupi]

tampa starting to look like troubles coming.

 

[Capt Caveman]

Woot Big Papi!!!

 

[Baked]

Rays team morale is going down like slip and slide. We're gonna see game 7 if they don't put up some runs w/ their last 9 outs.

Maybe in the back of their minds a little voice is saing "we SHOULD have put these guys away in game 5"...

 

[Capt Caveman]

Surprised Francona didn't keep Beckett in for the 6th. A lot of work for the bullpen tonight.

Yea, so was I but without his a game fastball he still did damm good against a great offensive club.

 

[brandonbull]

I doubt the Rays can get that game 5 loss out of their minds.

 

[SP33Demon]

Still in shock about that Tek HR.

Yea from 0 hits to a homer is kinda shocking but that's the fun part of baseball, never know who will come through, look at Barret, had 1 HR all season and poked a big one off Beckett.

 

[SP33Demon]

Bradford in. IIRC didn't he blow a first round game vs Boston when he played for the A's?

 

[BUTCH1]

Please Francona, stay away from Delcarmen here, has great stuff but loses the strike zone with regularity..

 

[SP33Demon]

cmon Masterson, get a grip.

ok, 1 down, needs to get Upton here.

Edit: SIDE RETIRED! To the 9th we go! /masterbates to Masterson

Kid settled down nicely, and has a massive slider/sinker.

Unless something changes soon, this thing is heading for game 7. Hope there is enough air in "the trop" cause you're going to have a lot of tight sphincters wearing devil ray unis in the dugout.

Don't jinx it yet. Papsmear has been known to blow saves, albeit he's a great closer.
